Real Thing

The form of an egg has been a theme in my Friday morning design class. Yesterday one of my fellow students brought me two eggs from her chickens. She lives on a farm a few hours from Melbourne.

This particular breed of chicken lays "duck egg blue" eggs--really they do! There's no need to verify the genuiness of these particular offerings. The colour is not quite even and the shape is just a bit imperfect. That's perfect really.

My plan is to blow out the eggs. Two benefits: fresh egg for me to enjoy in an easy meal and eggshells for me to keep.
